Shell scripting

The document contains multiple shell scripts that perform various tasks such as counting lines of C code in a directory, reading user input for filenames, sorting files by size, and performing basic arithmetic operations. Each script includes error handling for invalid inputs and demonstrates the use of loops, conditionals, and file operations in Bash. Overall, the document serves as a collection of practical examples for Bash scripting.
